Abstract
A system, method, and computer program product for warming a cache for a task launch is described. The method includes the steps of receiving a task data structure that defines a processing task, extracting information stored in a cache warming field of the task data structure, and, prior to executing the processing task, generating a cache warming instruction that is configured to load one or more entries of a cache storage with data fetched from a memory.
Claims20
A method comprising:
- receiving a task data structure that defines a processing task;
- extracting information stored in a cache warming field of the task data structure;
- and
- prior to executing the processing task, generating a cache warming instruction that is configured to load one or more entries of a cache storage with data fetched from a memory.
A system, comprising:
- a memory;
- a cache storage coupled to the memory;
- and
- a processor coupled to the cache storage and configured to:
- receive a task data structure that defines a processing task;
- extract information stored in a cache warming field of the task data structure;
- and
- prior to executing the processing task, generate a cache warming instruction that is configured to load one or more entries of a cache storage with data fetched from the memory.
A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium storing instructions that, when executed by a processor, cause the processor to perform steps comprising:
- receiving a task data structure that defines a processing task;
- extracting information stored in a cache warming field of the task data structure;
- and
- prior to executing the processing task, generating a cache warming instruction that is configured to load one or more entries of a cache storage with data fetched from a memory.
